it can be hydrolysed to form alcohol (ethanol)

It is also used as a refrigerant.

It can also be used as a solvent.

That's all I know so far lads as I explore the wonders of this quality universe.

Why ethane is an important industrial chemical?

Ethane applications are: - precursor in ethylene preparation (the most important use) - refrigerant - fuel


What is the number of hydrogen atoms in 90 amu of ethane?

To find the number of hydrogen atoms in 90 amu of ethane (C2H6), use the molar mass of ethane to determine the number of moles present. Next, use the molecular formula of ethane to calculate the number of hydrogen atoms in one mole, and then multiply by the number of moles present to find the total number of hydrogen atoms.


How many molecules of ethane are present in 0.334 grams of ethane?

To find the number of molecules of ethane in 0.334 grams, you would first convert the mass to moles using the molar mass of ethane. Then, you can use Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23 molecules/mol) to find the number of molecules in that number of moles.


Chemical Formula of Ethane?

Ethane is C2H6.


What elemants are in ethane?

Ethane is composed of carbon and hydrogen.


Is ethane a allotrope?

No, ethane is not an allotrope. Allotropes are different structural forms of the same element, while ethane is a compound composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms.


How many atoms in ethane?

There is a total of 8 atoms in Ethane.


Is there any structural formula of n ethane and iso ethane like n butane and iso butane?

Yes, the structural formula of n-butane is C4H10 and the structural formula of isobutane (2-methylpropane) is also C4H10. However, for ethane, the formula is C2H6 and there isn't a distinct isomer like isobutane for ethane.


How do you prepare butanw from ethane?

Butane is typically prepared from ethane through a process called catalytic dehydrogenation. In this process, ethane is passed over a catalyst at high temperatures to remove hydrogen atoms from the ethane molecules, resulting in the formation of butane. The butane can then be isolated and purified for various industrial applications.


Does Titan have an ocean of liquid ethane?

The oceans are made of liquid ethane.


Is ethane a natural gas?

Yes, ethane is a component of natural gas. When natural gas is extracted from the ground, it typically contains a mixture of gases such as methane, ethane, propane, and others. Ethane is separated from the natural gas during the refining process.


How many carbon atoms are contained in 5.50 gms of ethane?

30 g of ethane will have 6.023 x 1023 molecules of ethane So, 5.5 g will have 1.104 x 1023 molecules of ethane Since there are two carbon atoms, in one molecule of ethane, 5.5 g of ethane will have 2.208 x 1023 atoms of carbon.
